During usage
• When you first run your oven a certain smell will emanate from the insulation materials and the
heater elements. For this reason, before using your oven, run it empty at maximum temperature for
45 minutes. At the same time you need to properly ventilate the environment in which the product is
installed.
• During usage, the outer and inner surfaces of the oven get hot. While opening the oven door, step
back to avoid the hot steam coming out of the oven. There may be a risk of burns.
• Do not put flammable or combustible materials, in or near the appliance when it is operating.
• Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven.
• Do not leave the cooker while cooking with solid or liquid oils. They may catch fire on condition of
extreme heating. Never pour water on to flames that are caused by oil. Cover the saucepan or
frypan with its cover in order to choke the flame that has occured in this case and turn the cooker off.
• Always position pans over the centre of the cooking zone, and turn the handles to a safe position
so they cannot be knocked or grabbed.
• If you will not use the appliance for a long time, plug it off. Keep the main control switch off. Also
when you do not use the appliance, keep the gas valve off.
• Make sure the appliance control knobs are always in the "0" (stop) position when it is not used.
• The trays incline when pulled out. Be careful not to let hot liquid spill over.
• When the door or drawer of the oven is open, do not leave anything on it. You may unbalance your
appliance or break the cover.
• Do not put heavy things or flammable or ignitable goods (nylon, plastic bag, paper, cloth...etc) into
the drawer. This includes cookware with plastic accessories (e.g. handles).
• Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the appliance or its handles.
During cleaning and maintenance
• Always turn the appliance off before operations such as cleaning or maintenance. You can do it
after plugging the appliance off or turning the main switches off.
• Do not remove the control knobs to clean the control panel.
TO MAINTAIN THE EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF YOUR APPLIANCE, WE RECOMMEND YOU
ALWAYS USE ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS AND TO CALL ONLY OUR AUTHORIZED
